Hey Michelle! I agree - way too quiet!

<Font color="darkblue">
Open the eyes of my heart Lord
Open the eyes of my heart
I want to see You
I want to see You
Open the eyes of my heart Lord
Open the eyes of my heart
I want to see You
I want to see You

To see You high and lifted up
Shining in the light of Your glory
Pour out Your power and love
As we sing Holy Holy Holy

Holy Holy Holy
Holy Holy Holy
Holy Holy Holy
I want to see You

Holy Holy Holy
Holy Holy Holy
Holy Holy Holy
I want to see You</Font>

Hey! I was singing that song when I was walking from Sunday School to church this morning!

Chameleon/Petra

You want the best of both worlds
You're not getting either
You seem content to ride the fence
When you know which side is greener

Some run hot, some run cold
Some run from their maker
Some run the risk of losing out
With lukewarm friends and fakers

Chameleon
You blend with your surroundings
Chameleon
No one knows where you come from
Chameleon
You change with every situation
Compromising dedication

You compromise each word you say so innoffensively
You only want to hide behind your anonymity
You struggle for acceptance
And it takes you to extremes
The smile you hide your face behind
Is not all that it seems

Chameleon
You blend with your surroundings
Chameleon
No one knows where you come from
Chameleon
You change with every situation
Compromising dedication

Come out, come out
Come out from among them
Come out, come out
Come out and be free

There is no gray, no neutral ground
There's only black and white
And nothing in between the two
To turn a wrong into right
There is no time for your charade
You've got to make your stand
When salt has lost its savor
The world becomes so bland

Chameleon
You blend with your surroundings
Chameleon
No one knows where you come from
Chameleon
You change with every situation
Compromising dedication

In honor of Palm Sunday

Blessed Is He Who Comes/Carman

On a little donkey 2000 years ago
Christ rode into Jerusalem
So all the world would know
He was fulfilling prophecy
And everyone could sing
And worship their Savior
Messiah and King

And they sang
Hosanna, hosanna
Blessed is He who comes
In the name of the Lord
Hosanna, hosanna
Blessed is He who comes
In the name of the Lord

All the people worshiped
The little children laughed
They took the palm leaves
From the trees
And laid them in His path
Their hearts were overflowing
Their spirits came alive
Emmanuel the Chosen One
Has finally arrived

And they sang
Hosanna, hosanna
Blessed is He who comes
In the name of the Lord
Hosanna, hosanna
Blessed is He who comes
In the name of the Lord

Testify To Love/Avalon

All the colors of the rainbow
All the voices of the wind
Every dream that reaches out
That reaches out to find where love begins
Every word of every story
Every star in ever sky
Every corner of creation
Lives to testify

For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
I'll be a witness in the silences
When words are not enough
With every breath I take
I will give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love

From the mountains to the valleys
From the rivers to the seas
Every hand that reaches out
Every hand that reaches out to offer peace
Every simple act of mercy
Every step to kingdom come
All the hope in every heart will
Speak what love has done

For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
I'll be a witness in the silences
When words are not enough
With every breath I take
I will give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love

A World Away/Avalon

I've been walking down this long road
Simply taking in the view
And I've wandered down some wrong roads
Hit a dead end or two
But now I'm paying more attention
Before I even take a step
I've got to learn to forget
Well I don't know about you
What life has brought you through
But we'll keep walking on
Heading home, see what He will do

We're a world away from where we started
No more looking behind
We can make it if we just hold on
Keep the faith 'cause loves on our side

I point my heart in His direction
Knowing He will be my guide
I've learned to follow my affections
Walk away from foolish pride
When I think of where we started
And look to the end
I see the distance is less now
Than when we began
And it's now I see
I need You right here with me
And we'll be walking
Headed home, if we just believe

We're a world away from where we started
No more looking behind
We can make it if we just hold on
Keep the faith 'cause loves on our side
We're a world away but we're not there yet
There's a whole lot of road up ahead
I want to ride every single mile with you
We're a world away
There's no more yesterdays
We're a world away

The One who has made a way
For you and me
Is the same One who's seen us through
Everything wrong
But He can make it alright
If we just believe it's true
If we say what we say
And do what we do
And hold onto Him
He's gonna see us through

We're a world away from where we started
No more looking behind
We can make it if we just hold on
Keep the faith 'cause loves on our side
We're a world away but we're not there yet
There's a whole lot of road up ahead
I want to ride every single mile with you
We're a world away
There's no more yesterdays
We're a world away

Maze of Grace/Avalon

I run, I fall
I walk, I sometimes crawl
I give, I take
I bend and yet somehow I break
I get dizzy from all this spinning 'round
I'm determined but wonder where I'm bound
I've learned to follow the sweet familiar sound
Of Your voice

Through straight and narrow
Twists and turns
I make my way and everyday
I live I learn to follow You
You walk me through
A maze of grace

I stand, I sway
I reach for You, I push away
I'm spent, I'm saved
I disobey yet I behave
In my personal struggle to break free
The only piece of the puzzle that I need
Is to follow the sweet familiar lead
Of Your love

Through straight and narrow
Twists and turns
I make my way and everyday
I live I learn to follow You
You walk me through
A maze of grace
I'm lost in You and there I'm found
You're gently guiding
Everytime I turn around
It's no surprise
To see my life's a maze of grace

Knocking On Heaven's Door/Avalon

In my closet a spot is worn
From hours and hours upon my knees
I step inside, the quiet's like a doorway
To a world of peace
One thing I don't worry 'bout
I can't wear my welcome out

I keep knock, knock, knockin'
On Heaven's door
I keep talk, talk, talkin'
'Cause You answer Lord
Won't be stop, stop, stoppin'
So be listenin' for me
I'm knock, knock, knockin
On Heaven's door

I'm not a poet
No it's not like me to speak
In flowery words
Not a Prophet
Not at least in these parts
That would be unheard of
But my heart speaks
Loud and clear
And since my prayers are
Answered here

I'll keep knock, knock, knockin'
On Heaven's door
I keep talk, talk, talkin'
'Cause You answer Lord
Won't be stop, stop, stoppin'
So be listenin' for me
I'm knock, knock, knockin
On Heaven's door

Whisper what you're feeling
Shout it at the ceiling
Nothing's gonna fall on deaf ears
Ask Him for His mercy
Pray away Your worries
What do you want Heaven to hear

Whisper what you're feeling
Shout it at the ceiling
Nothing's gonna fall on deaf ears
Bless the world around you
Pray His peace surround you
What do you want Heaven to hear

Whisper what you're feeling
Shout it at the ceiling
Nothing's gonna fall on deaf ears
Thank Him for His favor
Simply praise your Savior
That's what I want Heaven to hear

I keep knock, knock, knockin'
On Heaven's door
I keep talk, talk, talkin'
'Cause You answer Lord
Won't be stop, stop, stoppin'
So be listenin' for me
I'm knock, knock, knockin
On Heaven's door

Just stopping by for a Palm Sunday visit to one of the nicest of threads. Sure do miss this one; it was always nice to see it going up and down the CB thread list.

Anyway, my best to all of you wonderful folks who post so regularly on this Christian Music thread and bring the songs of joy to us. A wish for a holy Holy Week.

I am Thine O Lord
I have heard Thy voice
And it told Thy love to me
And I long to rise in the arms of faith
And be closer drawn to Thee

Draw me nearer
Nearer blessed Lord
To the cross where Thou has died
Draw me nearer, nearer
Nearer blessed Lord
To Thy precious bleeding side
~~~~~~~~~~

Draw me close to You
Never let me go
I lay it all down again
To hear You say that I'm Your friend
You are my desire
No one else will do
For nothing else could take the place
To feel the warmth of Your embrace
Help me find the way
Bring me back to You

You're all I want
You're all I ever needed
You're all I want Jesus
Help me know You are near
~~~~~~~~~~~~

I will serve Thee
Because I love Thee
You have given life to me
I was nothing before You found me
You have given life to me

Heartaches
Broken pieces
Ruined lives are why You died on Calvary
Your touch is what I longed for
You have given life to me

Calvary covers it all

Jesus took on Him there
And Calvary covers it all</Font>

Still I will follow
No turning back

He poured in the Oil and the Wine
The kind that restoreth my soul

Let Him pour in the Oil and the Wine

Hi there everyone!

sorry to be so scarce around here...you have all been in my thoughts and prayers! I have been trying to mend my back(which actually starts in my hip(from to much sitting at the 'puter!) and I needed a break. have been trying to find a puppy and figure out God would have us to do. We had given up last weekend as every where we turned there was a door slammed in our face(not just shut quietly!). Then on Mon. I got an email from a breeder in Ontario and a door was left open. I am waiting to hear from her again...I feel like our lives are in "limbo" so to speak. Waiting to hear if she will sell to us, if so when will there be a pup available, so many things I need to do if we get one, but can't start til I hear from her....UGGGHHHH!

So...let's catch up! What is new with all of you?

Dan, It's so nice to hear from you. May you have a Blessed Easter! Your kindness oozes from each post

Jill. how was the wedding? How is Dan's back...he has been in my prayers often as I "feel his pain"

Will be back soon....really!
